Default Trunk LED

I'm planning on buying the the ijdm interior xenon white led set. I was wondering what led I would need to buy for the trunk.

I saw the led guide that links to vleds, but since they don't make it anymore can someone help me on a size i need or a link to the ijdm version?

You'll need a DE3175/DE3022 bulb which would be like these:

I believe you need a 31mm.

I bought this set from eBay ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/270785553913...84.m1497.l2649) recommended by another member. Still waiting for them to arrive so I can test them out.

The trunk light festoon bulb is about 27mm in length.

How did you make the 31mm festoon fit into a slot designed for 27mm? Bend the metal or hammer the festoon ends?

Have you tried both the eBay and ijdmtoy ones? How different is the output between the two?

LED lights for the trunk is a great improvement, now you can actually see something in the trunk at night.
